Welcome home to this five-bedroom charmer, nestled in the vibrant heart of Princeton! A short stroll from the high school, middle school, and shopping center, this home is just shy of 3,000 sq. ft. and is a true find in today’s market. Whether you’re looking for a forever home or a smart investment with rental potential, this spacious gem has endless possibilities. For remote workers or creatives, the private backyard features a sleek, energy-efficient studio complete with AC, heating, and panoramic windows, perfect for soaking in the tranquility of the garden while staying productive. As you enter, you’re greeted by a welcoming foyer that leads into a great room and modern kitchen. With an open-concept design, a custom skylight, and large windows, the space is drenched in natural light—ideal for hosting friends, lounging by the fire, or savoring views of the patio and lush rear yard. Upstairs, you’ll find four generous bedrooms, along with a full bath in the hallway and a private en-suite bath in the primary bedroom. Gorgeous hardwood floors flow throughout, complemented by beautiful wooden doors and fresh, updated carpeting. But the magic doesn’t stop there. The lower level offers a spacious laundry room with extra storage, direct access to the outdoors—perfect for a quick walk to your serene backyard studio, and it opens to a fully-equipped apartment complete with a separate living area, bedroom, kitchen, and full bath. It is ideal for guests or rental income. With sidewalks leading straight into town, a modern home office, vast living spaces, a cozy fireplace, and a private fenced-in yard, this downtown treasure is an absolute must-see. Did we mention there are five bedrooms? You won’t want to miss this rare opportunity!
